I said that "300 sockets are bound to 300 different UDP ports". To be clear; This is a Sun Ray server with many different users. At this point in time, there are some large number of applications in use which are using UDP, all bound to the wildcard interface, none of them bound explicitly to any particular local IP address. My point is that NTP is, while not unique, one of a small number of applications that feels the need to bind all the local IP addresses. -- blu "Mr. Jefferson, build up that wall!" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Utterback - Solaris RPE, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
